The truth is they are the defending superbowl champions until someone else says otherwise!
How often does it happen that a NFL Team beats another decent NFL Team four times in a calendar year? The Bears have been a very decent team over that calendar year and a great rivalry was in existance before many of our grandparents were born. I consider that quite an achievement in what the Packers did to a quality Bears Team.

The road to The Lombardi Trophy
Goes through Lambeau Field
Where It Belongs &
Where It’s Gonna Stay!

How can people say this team is overrated, they’re the defending Super Bowl champs. They’re playing MUCH better than they ever did last season, the 49ers are a team that’s over rated
They’ll be like the bucs next year, or the dolphins when they won the division a few season before. And I’m a dolphins fan dammit….

dolphins and bucs dont have a patrick willis and a bowman (just to name a few) on defense. also, they dont have a coach like harbaugh…this niners team is just getting started. they’lle be good for years to come

Zero penalties? Didn’t watch the game but wow. That’s hard to do.
————————-

It’s not really hard to do with the biased refs in todays nfl.

if the games were called fair zero penalties are impossible.

Listened more then watched last night but the Packers games i have seen show that the packers OL tackles better then most defenses and never gets called on it.

Playing the Packers there that late in the year is only going to help us. Bad/cold weather is going to hurt the passing game, force teams to rely on the run, and make the game more of a defensive battle. All of those favor the niners…by a LOT

Mon, 26 Dec 2011 16:05:49 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=175460#comment-1467730This all sounds vaguely reminiscent of last season starting around Week 16. First it was the Giants fans saying “New York is coming into Lambeau and beating the Packers. Our D will knock Aaron Rodgers out of the game.” One clown even said that it would be cruel for the Packers’ coaching staff to let Rodgers play because the Giants would hurt him so bad.

Then the next week we had to listen to the bears fans saying the same thing, telling us the season would be over after the bears beat the Packers at Lambeau. And of course, that Peppers and that awesome bears defense would knock Rodgers out of the game.

Then the playoff game at Philly – we had to hear how the Packers can’t win a playoff game in Philly. And that the Philly defense would knock Rodgers out of the game.

And then the Atlanta fans – we were told how they beat us once and they’ll do it again. We were told how great Matty Ice is and also how the Falcons D would knock Rodgers out of the game.

Then the rematch with the bears – we were told how the last time didn’t count because they weren’t really trying and that genius Lovie didn’t show them everything that he had up his sleeve. I’m sure they also predicted that Rodgers would get knocked out.

Finally, the Super Bowl – what’s funny here is that the Steelers fans weren’t really that obnoxious until after they LOST the game. Before that, they were mostly condescending. Either way, another Packer loss was predicted.

Bottom line – I don’t listen to the other teams fans on here. Most of them suck when it comes to predicting the outcome of games.

Hawk is slow, but he’s great at play recognition and is always in on tackles in the running game.

Raji can and does play well against 1 on 1 matchups. He hasn’t played as well as he did at the end of last year, but he continually gets into the backfield and disrupts the running game (which is his main responsibility as a NT in a 3-4 scheme).

Tramon isn’t afraid of contact. In fact, his main weakness this year has been in coverage.

And Peprah hasn’t been great, but he’s been serviceable. That’s about all you can expect from a backup FS who has gotten little playing time behind Nick Collins who has been in the pro bowl the last 3 years until suffering what is most likely a career ending injury this year.

The only problem is……..the weather affects both teams. The best team with a running attack is the Saints and 9er’s so Greenbay, strap on dem cleats and prepare to get dirty. Causue you are going down in your own house. Congrats…………..

Mon, 26 Dec 2011 13:50:47 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=175460#comment-1467584Packers fans, settle down! your team beat a bears offense with half it’s starers on the sideline, it’s star punt returner at 50% a backup cornerback and a quarterback who hasn’t played football in 4 years. AT LAMBEAU FIELD no less. This guy put up over 300 yards on your d. both picks were thrown into the chest of both defenders all they had to do is hold on to the ball. Sorry to say your offense is good but your defense straight up sucks. Pack fans better hope they are playing against backup Qb’s throughout the playoffs. Pack D will doom your SB repeat chances. Not a hater just objective

It says you value personal success more than team success and it says I know I’m a loser but I’m ok with that.

Mon, 26 Dec 2011 09:11:09 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=175460#comment-1467543Capers really should turn these wins into a head coaching job while he has the chance. I have a feeling him (and Gregg Williams for that matter) wouldn’t be so highly regarded if the other halves of their teams didn’t play so well.

When you look at the Saints numbers in a dome vs. out of a dome, getting the #1 seed is a pretty big deal. Same goes for the 49ers locking up #2 next week.

When you surrender over 300 to Josh freaking McClown then you are in sad sad shape.

That williams ole tackle was the most pitiful thing Ive seen.

I expect better ‘D’ from my team!

We have a QB that is having a once in a lifetime season only to have it put in jeapordy by some turds ole arm tackling.

The KC game was not a fluke!

I guess I am in either Alex Smith or Matt Moore’s capable hands.

Mon, 26 Dec 2011 07:31:09 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=175460#comment-1467521The one team that can come into Lambeau in January and beat the Packers is the Giants. They’ve done it before. It would be a tall order but the Giants look to be the toughest matchup- wise for the Pack at home.

Of course I don’t see Rodgers thowing an interception in overtime – ever.

That being said, all the playoff teams have flaws. Any team can be beat (see Seattle/New Orleans last year) Green Bay should be favored to return to the Super Bowl and probably win it. It won’t be easy though.
